As most of the world knows the US democratic and republican party, are putting on a really good show, and have shut down a good part of the US federal government.

I've heard that when the US is putting on a show with its right hand, you should look at what its left hand is doing...

so what is it that they are trying so hard to make everyone not notice, the war in syria?

it would seem the effects of the Government Shutdown  on the bitcoin market as well as other markets is negligible, why do you think this is, i would think watching the US government in such turmoil would shake even more confidence from the USD.

some news from today about this can be found here -> http://www.thestar.com/news/world/2013/10/07/us_government_shutdown_markets_rattled_as_default_looms_next.html

The U.S. must increase its debt ceiling by Oct. 17 or face the possibility of defaulting on its debts, a move that would shake the global economy and financial markets.


this is most retarded, the US cannot be allowed to default, only because republicans want one more inch. can it?

At some point the gigantic debt bubble will pop. Will be interesting to watch it unfold.

I thought the government was "of the people, for the people, by the people".

How do we shut down "the people"?

idk,

i'd imagine some paper was signed, phone calls were made, and finally, funds were frozen!

Well to do that you would have to make their money worthless, know their every move from surveillance or other means and then make them believe that this is all for their own good.....oh wait.

And the queen doesn't have any special interests or funding from any banking cartels? I beg to differ that she gets things done based on the good of everyone and has no special interests for the reason for her actions as the authority.

What i know so far............... Well then F.E.M.A has been buying up billions or rounds of ammo 5000+ armored transports , Tanks, F.E.M.A mass population transport vehicles i.e large buses, more guns than a small country has in its armament and region 3 that includes Washington DC buying up all available food packets. The training of Russian troops all 15000 of them and the U.S government trying to take your guns from you all. the dollar isn't worth the paper its printed on and the U.S debt is controlled by other country's not the FED reserve! or the Rothschilds/Rockerfellers

Given a privileged insight into certain government documents with thanks to (****) and (***) UK , I would say the Americans are well and truly Fucked.

The U.S like ALL of Europe can not pay its debt back its IMPOSSIBLE and to argue that point is retarded so please don't waste your time i wont respond.

The USA has to default on its debt you have to collapse!!!!!!! for there to be a new start for everyone who trades the dollar its that or Hyper Inflation so basically your damned if you do and your damned if you don't , there's no happy end to the Economics of the US its that simple unless the Rothschild/Rockerfeller Family write of the debt they control your will always be slaves , its mathematically impossible for Britain to pay off its debt, the same as the USA

(****)= me in jail !!!!!!!!

If the Debt Celing isn't sorted by the 17th i would suggest the American people run for the hills and bunker down, Governments don't but Billions of $$$$'s of Military hardware to not kill people with it inc its own people .................. 9/11

The Republicans who are doing this are Terrorists its how we in Europe see the situation , this is why you have the right to bare arms to defend against Terrorists and that right is not being used. people like Alex Jones sucks balls i hate him fucking CIA, Obama wants to give the American people cheap and free health care like we have in the UK and its seen as a bad thing well looks like the people are too fucking dumb to fight for a good thing..................Shame

The "shutdown" is great! More people might realize they don't need the government Smiley

Does anyone else see the irony in the shutdown... leaving the duties of government as outlined in the constitution intact?

Well the last time the US came close to defaulting and was subsequently downgraded the price of treasury notes actually went up because people were selling stocks and buying bonds  instead. The very bonds that caused the insecurity.

People can be incredibly stupid.

I thought that was weird also. It shows how few places there are to invest. Gold is too high, stocks are risky and manipulated right now, short term real estate is hard; I guess downgraded bonds look ok in that environment? All good news for bitcoin.

How much do you want to bet that if a default does happen, it'll happen while the government is "shutdown". If that happens, more people will fall under the notion that they desperately need government now more than ever, not the other way around.
